    Would 'These Days' by Bon Jovi count as classic rock? Some damn fine tunes on that album, kinda dark stuff given the artists usual up beat type ballads. Really love the album

    A mate of mine saw Bon SCOTT in the Olympia on the 1977 Powerage tour - lucky sod.

    Powerage was released in 1978.

    For me it has to be AC/DC's Powerage. Surely the finest AC/DC studio album recorded in early 1978. A cracking album, i just love it, it is steeped in blues and hard rock. I love Down Payment Blues, Gimme A Bullet, Riff Raff, Sin City, Gone Shootin' and Up To My Neck In You.

    O course I love all AC/DC albums, but this album is really special to me.

    Metalica --- nothing else matters

    it's my favorite


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,518 ✭✭✭stefan idiot jones


    I don't have a favourite, but Rainbow's Rising is an all time classic. I don't listen to it all the time. I save it up to savour the glory of it.
    It is flawless, Dio is at his sanctimonious best.

    Motorhead's Ace Of Spades is another.
    Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell.
    Whitesnsnake's Come An Get It.

    If push came to shove I would have to go with the Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers. Its got everything a good rock album should have and a great cover to boot.

    I love Rattle and Hum and I love Appetite For Destruction. Does Nevermind from Nirvana count?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,518 ✭✭✭stefan idiot jones


    Nevermind does but Rattle and Hum has no place at all.

    Nice to see the first album I ever owned, Queen's Night at the Opera on 'Classic Albums' on Sky tonight. I had great taste, even at 11 years old. Not sure that it's still my 'favourite', but it's a good un.

    that's a great one !! I used to listen to it for days with no interruption.....
